Seem this is a lonely road that of working with pascal and SDL2
I've started working with your headers Junior, working great with Delphi XE3 and Lazarus for Win32.

Now I'm trying Lazarus + Linux + SDL2 ... but I'm a total newbie on Linux
I'm read from you Cybermonkey googling in another forum this:
"If someone has questions about SDL2 with FPC under Linux, don‘t hesitate to ask. "
Then i'm here

I have not experience with Linux or Freepascal, i'm Windows Delphi user :-/
I think can contribute with some "fancy" examples after I could manage to compile in these
three environments: FreePascal-Linux, FreePascal-Windows, Delphi XE3-(no-VCL, no-Firemonkey), Delphi XE3 + VCL

Hi, and yes, either the sdl2-devel is missing or the linker can't find the appr. libraries. What Linux do you use? I assume it's an Ubuntu distro, so I'd rather recommend to use the official libraries from your package manager.sdl2libs.jpg

Hi.. I'll try it again. I tried with Ubuntu 12.?? first, now I've installed (ubuntu based) Linux Mint (seems more easy for a Windows guy like me).
Then do I have tell anything more to Lazarus to find the SDL libraries?
In windows I just copy the DLL the same folder with .EXE
Also it rise a new concern, about what a user of my game have to do to successful run my game on Linux, but I can let this for later..
Thanks
